What BTG Members Are Saying
"BTG is much more comprehensive compared to any other poker training available. It teaches you how to perform at your maximum level in your life and at a poker table."
"I was on my largest lifetime downswing. Now, I am confident I'll be able to reach levels I'd previously decided were no longer possible."
"My mental game in poker is so much better. I'm much more focused, and I've never been more motivated to succeed. Also, my relationship is a lot better. I'm a much better listener."
"BTG is the MBA of poker - one gets elite guidance and a community of smart, like-minded peers that turn every interaction into an opportunity."
"Being a part of BTG has been the best investment of my life. Nothing comes close."
"I always get the feeling that Phil has one goal with this group, to make everyone better, and he's doing a lot to make that happen."
"BTG sounded like the perfect platform to gain insights on anything non-technical. And that is exactly what it is. The community has been amazing and very helpful."
"Itβs surprised me how much BTG is a part of my daily routine now. Iβm constantly thinking of how I can be better each day because of BTG."
"I realized through BTG how important it is to have a group of like-minded people to help each other with similar struggles. Not only did the group help each other, but Phil guided each session."
"Compared to training sites or courses BTG is in a completely different league. The fact that Phil is so invested and personally responds to everyone with his insights is truly priceless."
"BTG added a whole new level to my study. Phil is not only one of the greatest players but also a brilliant teacher."
"BTG is perfect for anyone looking to level up in poker or life. Since I joined BTG, I've lost nearly 30lb and re-established healthy routines."
"When I joined BTG I was completely burned out after almost 20 years as a poker pro. Now poker excites me. Playing, studying, talking poker - I love it again."
"Pretty much my entire experience with BTG has exceeded expectations. Iβm really happy with how much everyone contributes to the community."
"It is the consistent feedback and focused attention that sets BTG apart. I have had a handful of conversations that have just in themselves paid for the price of the course several times over."
"BTG members really try to help each other. Everyone is so much more mature and respectful than in some other communities."
"Before BTG, things were more cloudy... Joining BTG has helped immensely with my fearful mindset."
"Before BTG there was a lot of guesswork. I no longer have to guess what the right approach will be... I can consult Phil or the group."
"BTG is a course that will teach and empower you to drive your own career and life to success. It will not force you to conform to one thing."
"The biggest thing is access to the network of people who are bought into this program. There is such a wealth of knowledge and experience."
"I had been playing on autopilot for a long time. Now when I'm playing, I can almost hear Phil's voice asking me how factors are playing into my decision-making."
"I think BTG is perfect for people that are lacking organization and community and are hungry to become a better version of themselves."
"I felt stuck in my poker career and was not sure what I needed to be doing differently. BTG has provided some new ways of approaching problems, but more importantly it provides accountability."
"Most people who play poker are there to have fun. BTG members are dedicated to learning -- about poker, about themselves, and about other people."
"I highly recommend BTG to anyone looking to elevate not only their poker skills but also their life. Itβs not just a course; itβs a transformative journey."
"I was sort of looking for some Phil life-hack advice. It only took the first week for that to become a reality."
"BTG's atmosphere has been really warm and positive since day one. It has been super nice to be part of a group in which members genuinely want to help each other."
"BTG has been very motivational. It's like a magic trick."
"The interactive structure makes it easier to feel accountable for your actions or get support if you struggle with something."
"Having a group of people who would support you through trying to improve was more valuable than I could ever imagine."
"BTG has really helped me see the value in performance, mindset, goal setting, accountability and how powerful small improvements can be over time."
"Taking a lot of Phil's battle-tested advice, sometimes very complex and sometimes very simple yet effective, has helped me to get rid off my bottom 10% sessions."
